Here's a different one
She is always being pulled up about it but she wrote and recorded this first, long before the Disney one.



The Commander In Chief is Berit Hagen, Norwegian metal guitarist among other things.

This'll liven your afternoon.

[NewcastleFalcon]

Yes liked that gibbo heard a bit of this in it

and another Chuck Berry song on Liza Tarbuck's radio programme tonight

Liza Tarbuck often has a selection of music on that appeals to me. Diidnt listen to it all tonight but I see on her playlist she had Joni's Chelsea Morning Eddie Cochrane Summertime Blues and Bert Kaempfert's A Swingin' Safari well why not?

Purple Rain came up a while back. I listened to Prince's version and didn't reckon much to it.

While listening to Holly Cole this morning this showed up.

Far, far better although even Holly Cole can't completely redeem it.



As a side note, the 'radio' in the Civic is baffling, far too many options and after removing the dead autochanger from the C5 to rescue the CDs stuck in it, discovered that I don't have an autochanger. Oh well!

Found a set of connectors in the armrest. USB and AUX among them. Tried my phone, which is employed more as an mp3 player than a communications device. Worked beautifully - until I drove off and it died, wonky USB socket on the phone.

In a flash of amazing but rare brilliance, dragged a heap of mp3s onto a virgin dongle, plugged it in and perfect, even driving. Enough tracks on there for about three weeks without repeating.

I've had the same Crystal Gale CD going round and round in my C5 for the last three months, never tire of it.

[myglaren]

Since the autochanger failed in the C5, I have had Jackie Evancho's "The Debut" running constantly for over two years

[NewcastleFalcon]

You'll know the words now than Steve!
I think I know the answer to this question, be honest though

Do you sing along?

I do on occasions I think "someone somewhere in the summertime" was my last outburst, stuck in a 70's and 80's timewarp.

regards Neil

[myglaren]

Definitely don't sing along.
I can't sing, not at all.
I also despise amateur singers. The only one I could tolerate was my mother, who was actually pretty good and sung mostly in Welsh.*

No I don't know the words. I half-listen to them and forget them as soon as they are spoken (sung). It is an extreme rarity that I recall them.
I did used to know all Bob Dylan and Leonard Cohen's words though.
I have a struggle remembering names now though.


*Actually - I remember now that someone I used to work with was a very good singer and used to sing mainly Elvis and Jim Reeves songs while working.

[NewcastleFalcon]

As yes and this got the treatment on Elaine Page on Sunday, although her tune was from the Kinks Musical Sunny Afternoon.



Regards Neil

[NewcastleFalcon]

Have a bit of Mannfred Mann, the song was an answer on Pointless Haven't heard it for ages.



Regards Neil

[Gibbo2286]

I watch Pointless with the mute button pressed, Alexander Armstrong gets on my nerves. I think he must be paid by the word, he can't stop wittering on.

Enjoyed that video Neil, thanks. Does anyone else think the chap who appears on the left at 1.05 is David Frost?

Does look like him.

This comment did make me chuckle
"Bleeding great song. Paul Jones had an awesome voice. Real music for real music fans. Sod off X factor."

Jack Bruce apparently played Bass on that track.

Anyway, a couple of other Manfred Mann tracks appear at the list at the side. This one often chanted on the terraces os St James Park in two phases The original and best "The Mighty Wyn" (Wyn Davies) and then not much change of lyrics for Micky Quinn
